Rebirth with Award

Today is New Year's Eve. Before Cheng Qianyun went back home, Kang Mingyu came to visit.

I brought some seafood and two bags of gifts that looked the same size.

"This is a birthday present for Qianqian and you. It's not convenient for us to go over and disturb you tomorrow, so we sent it here today." Cheng Qianyun went to pick up the food she ordered last night and was not at home. Cheng Shiyu and Grandma Cheng went to the store to help clean up and were not at home either. So the only one at home was Cheng Shuyan, who had not yet packed his luggage to go home.

"You're so polite. Thank you. It's not inconvenient. If you are free tomorrow, you can come to our house for dinner with A Mao and the others. I'll send you the location when I get home." Cheng Shuyan put the gift aside and went to pick up some New Year gifts they were going to take back.

Then he took out two cans of pickled pepper chicken feet and two bags of dried meat.

"I didn't prepare anything special. They were all made by my parents. You can take some back."

Kang Mingyu did not refuse and took the things very naturally. After interacting with the two siblings for a long time, he naturally knew how to get along with them so that they would feel more comfortable.

"Would it be convenient to go there tomorrow?"

Kang Mingyu naturally wanted to go. Tomorrow was Chinese New Year, so it was legitimate for him to visit her and he could see Cheng Qianyun. It was also her birthday, so naturally he wanted to go.

"It's convenient. Tomorrow is Qianqian's and my 18th birthday, and my parents said that we must set up two tables at home to liven things up. But there's no need to be deliberate. Come if you don't have other plans, and go get busy if you do." Cheng Shuyan also stated that it was not a banquet, but just a homely meal.

It was because Kang Mingyu remembered their birthdays and specially prepared birthday gifts that he invited them. They didn't mean to have a big birthday party. On the first day of the first lunar month, everyone was busy paying New Year's greetings, so who would have time to celebrate their birthdays?

"Who is going with Xiao Mao? I can drive everyone together then." Kang Mingyu made the decision right away.

Cheng Shuyan thought for a moment and said, "Yan Yanyan and the others might go too. We're not sure. If you want to go tomorrow, ask A Mao."

Kang Mingyu responded and asked Cheng Shuyan which store Cheng Qianyun went to and whether he needed him to drive to pick her up.

Cheng Shuyan thought about the foam box he packed yesterday, and also thought about the large amount of food he had to pack today, so he called his sister and found out that she hadn't returned yet, so he told Kang Mingyu the name and address of the store.

Kang Mingyu went out almost immediately.

Cheng Qianyun wanted to take a taxi, so she walked to the intersection with a big bag in her hand, but she couldn't get a taxi after trying for a long time. Her brother called her and told her that Kang Mingyu had a car coming to pick her up, so she stopped struggling and waited at a nearby imported snack shop.

He didn't just sit there and wait, but picked out several snacks, all of which were the ones that Kang Mingyu often ate in "Cheng Qianyun's" memory.

That was a thank you gift for the ride.

After getting in the car, Cheng Qianyun asked Kang Mingyu why he went to her house.

Kang Mingyu told Cheng Shuyan that he had been invited to their house tomorrow.

Cheng Qianyun looked at him, which made him nervous.

"Don't look at me like that. If you keep looking at me like that, I'm afraid I'll step on the wrong pedal."

Seeing that his ears were red as if smoking, Cheng Qianyun shifted her gaze forward.

When they got home, Cheng Qianyun asked Kang Mingyu not to leave yet, as she had something to tell him. She had to take the packed vegetables in and put them in the incubator first.

Kang Mingyu, who was standing at the door waiting, was a little nervous.

He didn't know what Cheng Qianyun would say to him.

But probably, it's about the relationship between the two of them that has yet to be seen.

Kang Mingyu was very nervous and kept pacing back and forth.

I was a little scared and wanted to run away, but I was afraid that Cheng Qianyun would be angry if I ran away like this.

But if he didn't leave, he was afraid that Cheng Qianyun would explicitly reject him.

Thinking about it, he didn't confess again. The things his parents said that day to complain about him could only be considered hints at most, and could not be considered a confession.

She couldn't bring it up herself and then refuse, right?

But then he thought about the last time she came in the middle of the night. He didn't say anything, but she saw through him and told him to go back and think about it.

Kang Mingyu comforted himself: Don't be nervous, don't be afraid, she probably just wants to tell you about going to her house tomorrow. The worst result is probably that she won't let you go.

Thinking of this, Kang Mingyu chose to run when he saw Cheng Qianyun coming out: "Qianqian, my mother has something to talk to me about, I'll go back first."

Then he quickly got into the car, started the car, and drove away.

This made Cheng Qianyun, who wanted to ask him if he had changed his mind again, a little confused.

This person seemed quite normal before, why did he become so weird after chatting with him a few days ago?

After she asked him to think about the problem carefully, Kang Mingyu's attitude towards her made her think that he had thought it through and they were only suitable to be friends.

His attitude towards her didn't make her feel any different from before. His attitude returned to the same as before, and she didn't need to ask for an answer anymore.

But after chatting a few days ago, I felt different.

Especially today.

This made Cheng Qianyun feel that her previous judgment was wrong.

So, she wanted to ask clearly.

Unexpectedly, this person ran away.

Cheng Qianyun wanted to call again to ask, but no one answered the phone, probably because he hadn't arrived home yet. Thinking of sending a message to ask, she saw that Kang Mingyu had sent her a lot of messages.

The earliest unread message was on the 14th.

Seeing him complain about his parents looking down on him and saying that he was not worthy of her, Cheng Qianyun knew that she didn't need to ask any more questions.

Cheng Qianyun's mood was a bit complicated, and it became even more complicated after she opened the gift.

Her gifts were similar to her brother's.

But this gift, although it was said to be for her and her brother, seemed more like it was given to her for her use.

The custom-made tea set has different words on it, but my brother doesn’t like drinking tea.

My brother has complained about her old-fashioned hobbies more than once, saying that she seems to be retiring in advance. Kang Mingyu and the others knew about it, but he still gave his brother a set of tea sets.

Cheng Shuyan was speechless: "You can use it. Leave one of these teacups for me. It's my birthday gift after all."

Cheng Qianyun put the tea set back to its place. She had no intention of taking it back.

On the way back, Cheng Qianyun kept thinking about how to deal with the situation between her and Kang Mingyu.

"Shopkeeper, why haven't you read or slept for the past hour? Are you troubled by anything?"

When they were almost home, Qianyi's words woke Cheng Qianyun up.

She thought about it for an hour but couldn't come up with the answer, which wasted an hour.

"Qianyi, tell me, should I talk to Kang Mingyu and ask him not to waste his feelings?"

Qian Yi was puzzled: "Did Kang Mingyu's words and actions make you feel uncomfortable or offended?"

Cheng Qianyun shook her head slightly: "No."

"So his behavior makes people around you make fun of you?"

"No." Few people even felt it, at least her silly brother didn't feel it, otherwise she wouldn't have invited him to come with A Mao and the others tomorrow.

"Does he bother you at other times?"

It's rare for her to have a phone call for an hour a week, and she doesn't read or reply to messages, so it can't really be considered a bother.

"Since there is nothing, why did you talk about such an unpleasant topic with others during the New Year? Do you have a grudge against him?"

Cheng Qianyun:......
